#1: ARRAN's Quiksilver - UPDATE with pictures 22/6 Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Tue Sep 20, 2011 5:17 am ---- Right, I'm going to try and keep this short and sweet. Basically, I'm Arran and this is my 206.
EXTERIOR
- 16" nimrods
- Debadged
- Tinted windows
- Colour coded sport bumpers
- Pearl black morettes with 8000k HID's
- Sport mesh bumper and bonnet grille
- Genuine Peugeot stubby aerial
- Rear M3 style LED lights
- Rear wiper deleted
- Aeroblade wipers
- Private plate, pressed metal
- Peugeot 207 front splitter
- Team Heko wind deflectors
- Rear drums sprayed black
- Crystal side repeaters with Silvatec bulbs
ENGINE
- K&N 57i Induction kit
- Powerflow stainless steel centre section and backbox custom made (no centre silencer)
- Raceland 4-2-1 stainless steel manifold, decat
INTERIOR
- Full GTi180 interior inc. front seats, rear bench, front and rear doorcards and glovebox
- Black suede A, B Pillars and roof lining
- Wrapped black vinyl interior light to match roof and pillars
CHASSIS
- Lowered approx. 90mm on Pro Sport coilovers with helpers removed
- Rear torsion bar approx. 100mm to match
AUDIO
- Custom fiberglass install ported, colour coded to car
- 2 x 450W Fusion subs
- JBL 270W Components (up front)
- 1 x 900W Fusion amp (running subs)
- 1 x 450W Fusion amp (running comps.)
Heres how I bought it:
First of all, I sprayed the badge red and black:
Next, I dewipered it and had a stainless steel powerflow exhaust fitted:
Also, went to Trax and bought a few stickers for the back window, not everyones cuppa tea but I like them
Next I bought a set of angel eyes:
Finally, I had my windows tinted:
Next on this list is to spray my phase 2 boot strip which arrived today, buy a GTi front bumper, looks for some new alloys and finish having it lowered! (Coilovers and rear dampers are fitted, just torsion bar to be adjusted.)
Any ideas are greatly appreciated! Thanks for looking.
NEW IDEAS
New wheels - BBS RS reps with centres in Ford Velvet purple.
SP arches
Roof resprayed gloss black
Roof rack? (Sprayed up with purple bars) Last edited by ARRAN on Sat Jun 22, 2013 8:37 am; edited 10 times in total

#3: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Tue Sep 20, 2011 5:31 am ---- The person who had mine before obviously had a bump, and just put a cheap front bumper on. Its got a sport rear bumper, just a normal front one haha. And someone has colour coded mine themselves, as you can see the paint flaking in some places.

#8: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 3:08 am ---- Bit too low at the back mate compared to the front in my opinion. Looks good though reminds me of my old 1.4, kind of miss it a bit
#9: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 3:11 am ---- yeah i know what you mean mate, it sits real nice in the flesh, but i may have it brought up a bit on the back, not sure yet lol.
#10: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: Davezilla, Location: Milton KeynesPosted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 10:10 am ---- nice car looks to low at the back though

#12: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 4:45 pm ---- it won't go any lower on the front :(:(
#13: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:00 am ---- Haven't updated this in a while, so here goes. Car looks sh*te in that picture of it lowered, as that was literally 5 minutes after it had been done coilovers have settled a bit more, however still needs to go looooower on the front here are some more pictures
After being made redundant back in September, not alot has been updated really! GTi front bumper should be here after Christmas, as should the bootbuild. And front speakers have been amped. Thats about all I can think of! Cheers for looking
EDIT: I know the wing is the wrong colour. and also, pressed plates are on order
#14: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 1:10 pm ---- Looks smexy in the last photo, but needs a bigger drop on the front
Also how are the rear axle bearings? Did you have them replaced?
#15: Re: ARRAN's Quiksilver - Progress Blog Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 4:42 pm ---- DEFINITELY needs dropping more on the front!
Nope haha, why? Feel okay to me, nothing was wrong when it was done
